Lineâs heart trembled, feeling as though she was about to be bewitched by his voice. His embrace was so tight that he seemed to be tremblingâ¦
âYâm gonna slap you if you donât let go!â She bit her lip and made a threatening remark Ate suddenly chuckled and lifted his handsome face, which was instantly so close to her. âYou can do it if you want.â
She froze and stared blankly at the face that was right in front of her the co slap him just by raising her hand but she could not #wwf the feeling of the time she slapped him still lingered on www.how much Iâm entering to embrace you wwwww the seam had tell his face, leaving only What Het kale hart humma pats and his harshead Instead of answering her question, he said, âIâm not afraid of suffering. What I fear most in life is not being able to be with you. Do you⦠understand?â
Lina took a deep breath and said sternly, âYou wouldnât have broken up with me if what you fear most is not being able to be with me. Hadwin Stephenson, what you fear most is losing the wealth and power youâve worked so hard to gain.â
His eyes darkened, and his face seemed to grow paler. âHow can I protect you if I donât have all this wealth and power? Lina, you just donât understand how important these are!â
Without them, Hadwin Stephenson would be just a nobody whom people could trample on. How could he protect her if he could not even protect himself?
âProtect me?â Lina smiled bitterly. âDid you break up with me when I was lying in the hospital bed to protect me?â
âI-â He opened his mouth, but she quickly cut him short.
âIf the breakup was supposed to protect me, then Iâd rather you not protect me! If love needs to be protected by power and wealth, then itâs too fragile!â She was not afraid of death but of being casually abandoned after loving someone deeply!
âLina, you know nothing!â said Hadwin Stephenson.
Lina said, âYes, I donât know you, but you donât know me either, Hadwin Stephenson. Iâve brought the clothes here. You donât need to return my clothes to me anymore.
Just throw them away somewhere. Theyâre worthless anyway. As for the futureâ¦â
She paused and gazed at him. âYouâre now the president of the Stephenson family, and thereâs no threat to the status of the Stephenson family anymore. You can find another suitable woman. You donât have to pay an ordinary woman like me any more attention, and Iâll also find someone who can live a peaceful life with me-â
âStop it!â Hadwin Stephenson suddenly raised his hand and covered Linaâs mouth. His hand with distinct joints quivered. âLina, I told you to give me time. Iâll prove that my feelings for your have never changed. Iâve done everything just to be with you!â
Lina pulled down his hand. âBut I canât afford to give you time. Hadwin Stephenson, I donât want to be with you anymore.â
With that said, she pushed him away forcefully, got up, and quickly left the office.
He sat on the couch as his hands shook and his teeth clenched, trying to suppress the pain in his body!
Blood curse!
